Ellie Goulding, Lily Allen + More Brits React to England’s World Cup Loss
Every four years, the best soccer players in the world compete for their respective countries in the World Cup, and fans seem to come out of the woodwork.
On Wednesday (July 11), England played Croatia in the semi-final. The winner would go on to play France in the championship game on Sunday (July 15). England's Kieran Tripper supplied the first goal just five minutes into the game. Croatia's Ivan Perisic equalized in the second half, and then Mario Mandzukic scored a stunning goal in the final few minutes of play, giving Croatia the 2-1 win.
While Croatia will go on to play France for the World Cup title in a few short days, Brits all over the world are crying into their pints today—celebrities included.
"Heartbreaking... but beautifully played. So proud of our boys!" Ellie Goulding tweeted.
"Not coming come," Lily Allen tweeted, in reference to the England slogan "It's coming home," alongside a gif of Britney Spears crying.
"One day, It will come home. And it will feel incredible. x" James Corden lamented.
